I reckon a dark silver (very metallic and glossy of course) would look awesome on a boy.

Just to be different I would suggest the new Swift Lavender Metallic.

The metallic white of the new Swift also looks very good.

Got some silver hammertone I was thinking of using. Hides all the defects in the panels as well, and is practically indestructible.

When i finally get the panels straightened on my car i'm going for "Velocity Red" that's on the new RX8's.

And i don't have to strip my whole car to get it all the same colour, stock red is ok under the bonnet. 8)
